Frequently asked questions

Can we get a Team Discount for this course?
No.

Unlike almost every other HeatSpring course, this one isn't eligible for a Team Discount because of the way our contract works with NABCEP.

Since this course includes a full pass to the NABCEP conference, we can't provide the same discounts that we normally do on other classes.
How does this course work?
This 1 module course is delivered entirely online. This course is self-paced and you can set your own schedule to complete the materials. During your year of access the instructor will be in the course answering questions on the discussion board. After successfully completing the course, you will be able to generate a certificate of completion.
How long do I have access to the materials?
Students can pre-order but will not be able to access the full course materials or earn a certificate of completion until the course is fully published. Once the course is published any students who have pre-ordered will then have access to the course materials for one year (365 days). After the one year of access expires, access can be extended by joining as a HeatSpring member. A single membership extends access to course materials for all past enrollments.
Is there a certificate of completion?
